[helladoomed]

They're pretty awesome, yeah.

whatcha got in mind, doc?

[4thdimensional]

Clock set to 10:04. As I told him, I'm sure you know why...though it needs embellishment, a lightning bolt wouldn't hurt.

[helladoomed]

hm

i think I could come up with an awesome design for that

[4thdimensional]

I'd be grateful---and I'd compensate you well, of course.

[helladoomed]

paying me to do my job. lucky me doc

kidding kidding. when do you need it by?

[4thdimensional]

Of course.

I'm not in a hurry...a few weeks to a month should be fine.

[helladoomed]

Okay, cool.

I'll toss it at you when I come up with something.

[timecapture]

Hey, Chloe? We need to talk.

[voice/permalocked]

[helladoomed]

Max!

[Man it felt like forever since they'd talked!]

Sure, what's up?

[magnitudes]

Sarah's back. Might stay at mine a few nights.

[timecapture]

I know, right? I've been so busy settling in at college that I've barely even had time to sleep.

So, when was the last time you watched a Batman movie?

[helladoomed]

Yeah. I get that. Figured I'd give you a little time before I started hounding.

Uh. Batman? Man I don't know. Last year?

shit what happened do you know

is she okay

[timecapture]

We should hang out on the weekend! I mean, if you're free. And you want to.

Oh, great. Because... you know, he's here. In this city.

[She's honestly trying not to fangirl.]

[helladoomed]

No Max, I totally don't want to hang out with you.

[Maximum sarcasm. And then...]

Wait what?

[magnitudes]

Got in a bit of a scrap, but she'll be right. Just needs time to figure it all out and get her head around it, I reckon.

[timecapture]

Aw. [Cue giggles.]

Yep. Batman. Totally cereal about this.

[helladoomed]

Yup. Sorry. No girlfriend for you.

[Man.]

Okay that is hella weird.

[helladoomed]

can I come over?

[timecapture]

Oh, boo. Guess I've got to write shitty poetry and take angsty selfies now.

Yyyyyep. And I really need you to not tell anyone that you know who he is.

[helladoomed]

So, normal Wednesday then?

[Sorry she can't help it.]

Huh. Right. Secret identity.

[A beat.]

Hmmmmm.

[timecapture]

Hey!

[Oh, dear. She knows that tone.]

Chloe.

[helladoomed]

I'm just thinkin', he's...you know. Filthy, unimaginably, unrealistically rich...

His secret is probably worth a few bucks to him at least...

[timecapture]

Chloe, don't you dare.

[He's Batman. Surely, she can see why that's such a bad idea, even if her morals are rusty.]

[helladoomed]

I'm just sayin'...

[She huffs.]

Fine, fine. But being rich would be pretty nice you know.
